The wonderful colors ofMarimekko! I love the bold colors and designs that are the brand Marimekko and was rather pleased to find the NYC flagship store - with the help of several enables - located on Fifth Avenue (23rd st). The store is filled with fabric, clothing, housewares, bags and accessories.

My fabric purchases (again, I think I showed great restraint):

And very last ...

It is remarkable what you stumble upon when you decide to head off without a map: an Orla Kiely store located just around the corner from Purl Soho.

Thanks for sharing your trip with us! It has been interesting to see something new through your travels. Much safer to watch you use your restraint than wonder if I would have any with those fun fabrics!

Love the photos of the Maimekko ~ it's such pretty fabric and just love anything Orla Kiely.I was in Seattle a few months ago taking a class with Katie Peterson (it was so fun to meet her) and I stopped in a Marimekko shop, love their fabrics ~ I'm surprised you didn't leave with more!

we were lucky enough to be there last october and I followed your footsteps in many cases, spending two whole afternoons in purl where the staff were so helpful and polite in that wonderful american way ... soho was a great place to stay ...
